Excellent article. Appreciated the addition of Mahan's theory, which I was unfamiliar with. You may find a lot of similarities between this article and one I wrote back in October. Appears we're on the same page.

Yes, your article is excellent! I was working on a section on the Great Game but I ran out of space! I was going to work in Rudyard Kipling's novel Kim. What's interesting though is that Britain allied with Russia in the Napoleonic War, WW1 and WW2. We're definitely on the same page though!

Britain has been terrified of a Russian-German alliance and did everything in its power to drive Russia and Germany apart. The US has basically taken up the mantle of the old British empire and is doing the same thing, e.g. Nordstream. I'm increasingly of the opinion that the British empire never died, but just moved its capital to Washington, DC.

Look forward to reading more of your stuff!

I have a strong feeling the Big Leaders are playing with fire, but preparations are not in place to put the fire out when it errupts.

On your articles: I always knew I know very little of what there is to know, but now I know I know even less. Keep up the good work!

I have a theory that uses Halford Mackinder - Heartland Thesis, I call it NEXUS OF POWER. In short, the center of power hasn't been static, but has traveled around the globe in Westward direction in the last 6,000-10,000, starting from South East Asia. It has circumvented the globe and is now back in Asia. You can easily chart it by placing the dates of various empires on a world map. And also, the 2nd part if the theory is that the center of power also travels north. I don't claim to have invented it; I learned some of it from Robert Anton Wilson and Giambattista Vico. Thanx for the article, it adds a lot to my theory and expands it.

I know that China-Russia will try to spread the Collective West as thin as possible without necessarily starting a shooting war. So Ukraine, Taiwan, Iran and North Korea will stay as potential trouble spots with each occasionally heating up. If a war starts in Iran for example, then China would see this as an opportunity to threaten Taiwan. Israel is in a particularly delicate position after the Iran-Saudi peace deal. It seems every Middle Eastern nation is negotiating to join the BRICS+ except Israel.
